GEM is proud to partner with @wearegoodera on the Blue Sky Mission, designed to strengthen disaster response and recovery efforts before disaster strikes.
2025 is expected to be an above-average year, with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration forecasting heightened activity. The need for coordinated relief efforts is constant. That’s why GEM relies on corporate partners who support us through cash contributions, in-kind donations, and volunteer time to help us stay mission-ready.
The most impactful relief work happens before a disaster hits. That’s why we invite you to join us and Goodera during this Blue Sky Mission to help communities prepare, respond, and recover faster.

Today, we take a moment to honor and remember the lives lost—and the countless others forever changed—by the Surfside Building Collapse.
Four years have passed since that tragic morning, but for many, the pain remains as present as ever. The echoes of that day still live in the hearts of families, survivors, and a community that will never forget.
In the aftermath of unimaginable loss, our South Florida community rose with strength and compassion. Global Empowerment Mission was proud to stand alongside first responders, neighbors, and supporters like you—mobilizing urgent relief, raising critical funds, and delivering comfort in a time of profound sorrow.

Continuing the Mission in Lahaina: Global Empowerment Mission (GEM) Hawai’i, in partnership with Stable Road Foundation and Maui Brewing Co, is proud to continue our commitment to long-term housing solutions after the 2023 Lahaina wildfire.
We’ve already placed 7 ADUs (Accessory Dwelling Units) on family properties in the burn zone, helping survivors return to their land while they rebuild. Now, we’re honored to support the Lahaina Jodo Mission, a spiritual and cultural cornerstone since 1912, by placing two ADUs on-site.
The devastating fire destroyed the temple, pagoda, bell tower, and more — but the bronze Amida Buddha still remains, a symbol of hope and resilience.
These two 2-bedroom Castleblock units will serve as the Minister’s residence and office, allowing Rev. Gensho Hara and his wife, who have lovingly cared for the mission for over 60 years, to remain present as this sacred site rebuilds.
A heartfelt thank you to our incredible donor partners @stableroadfoundation and @mauibrewingco for making this project possible.
In honoring the past, we help lay the foundation for the future. @globalempowermentmissionhawaii #Maui #lahaina #strong

Today marks the official start of the 2025 hurricane season.
This weekend, GEM’s U.S. Director of Field Missions, Kimberley Bentley, was on the ground at key preparedness events in both Doral and Fort Lauderdale—helping strengthen connections, share critical knowledge, and build resilience across our region.
In Doral, Kimberley attended the Doral Disaster Fair, where she engaged with city officials, local organizations, and businesses committed to helping residents prepare for, survive, and recover from hurricane emergencies. Officials expressed deep appreciation for GEM’s ongoing efforts and are looking forward to tomorrow’s GEM Hurricane Preparedness Press Conference.
She also joined the “Eye of the Storm” event in Fort Lauderdale—a dynamic gathering focused on hurricane science, mitigation, and preparedness. Here, Kimberley collaborated with partners from Miami-Dade Department of Emergency Management and Broward County Emergency Management, Florida Power & Light (FPL), and other regional stakeholders to advance preparedness conversations ahead of what is forecast to be an active season. Together, we are stronger and ready to serve. @kayebentley @miamidadeem @browardemd @insidefpl #GEM #HurricanePreparedness #hurricane #season

A day of hope. A day of healing. A day of heart. 💙
Today, in partnership with San Diego VOAD, and our partners at @frontlineimpact - GEM USA West proudly hosted a large scale Recovery Pop-Up for families impacted by the devastating 2024 floods.
Back in January, relentless floodwaters surged through Southeast San Diego—an unforgiving river that swallowed homes, memories, and the very foundation thousands once stood on. Over six feet of water consumed entire neighborhoods, leaving heartbreak in its wake.
Nearly a year and a half later, the need remains deep, and the wounds are still mending. But today—something powerful happened.
We came together—partners, community members, and volunteers—not only to deliver critical recovery resources through our LTRGs and DCMs, but to restore hope and bring moments of joy to those who have lost so much.
✨ There was laughter and games.
🎶 Live music that lifted the spirit.
🍽️ Delicious food that united us.
💇🏽♂️ Free haircuts that helped families feel whole again.
But most importantly, today gave our flood survivors something truly rare: a moment of normalcy. A chance to smile, to reconnect, and to know they are seen, heard, and cared for.
This is what true recovery looks like. It’s about more than rebuilding homes. It’s about rebuilding hearts. Restoring dignity. And reminding every family—you are not alone.
Together, we rise. 💛
